The opening paragraph is meaningless babble and needs to be rewritten for clarity. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.100.158.116 (talk) 20:51, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Andrea Dworkin specifically and repeatedly denied the "all intercourse is rape" reading of Intercourse. http://www.nostatusquo.com/ACLU/dworkin/LieDetect.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.217.173.147 (talk) 20:28, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article needs rewriting

[edit]

It's a good article and raises quite a few good points, but I think it could probably be trimmed down to 1/3rd and not lose much. It's not really written in Wikipedias style, even though the content is OK it comes across like a blog post or an editorial due to some strong unobjectivity.Oxr033 (talk) 18:33, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Adding "The Hunting Ground" documentary

[edit]

I'd like to suggest adding a mention of The Hunting Ground, a 2015 documentary about rape at American universities, in the 2010s section. I work for the director, so I'm proposing it here on the talk page rather than immediately adding to the article. Please see Talk:The Hunting Ground#Suggested additions for the most direct impacts of the film on state and federal legislation. -Edwardpatrickalva (talk) 00:08, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Merge from The New Campus Anti-Rape Movement

[edit]

It has been suggested that The New Campus Anti-Rape Movement be merged into this article. Please join the discussion at Talk:Campus sexual assault. DPRoberts534 (talk) 17:18, 27 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Limited history of anti rape movement

[edit]

Needs more history about the movement in the 1860s by female black activists. Wickersong (talk) 16:04, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The original edit by Wickersong, disallowed by an edit filter, was as follows:

This overview of the anti-rape movement is foremost too America-centric but does also not tell the full story even of the anti-rape movement in America. It actually began much earlier than the 1960s as stated in the article. The earliest efforts to systematically combat rape were in the 1870s, when African American women, like Ida B. Wells, took leadership roles in organizing anti-lynching campaigns. They formed the Black Women's Club that actually formed the foundation for the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence.

The first testimony against rape was given after the Memphis Riot in May 1866, during which black women were gang raped by white men.

It would do this article well to research more about this history.

Article length/ readability

[edit]

This article has some large blocks of text that make navigation and casual reading more difficult than it needs to be. Specifically, the subsection "History -> Origins", as well as the entire "Education and outreach" section. Does anyone have thoughts about possibly trimming some sections, or perhaps adding some new subsection divisions to better organize the larger chunks? — Rastafarian Targaryen (talk) 06:34, 8 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The article has an obvious topical overlap with the Rape crisis movement article. Is there any point in perhaps merging these two or cross-referencing? Luxxxter (talk) 16:00, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
